This guy goes up to a bar located at the top of the Empire State
Building. It looks like a nice place and he takes a seat at the bar
next to another guy. "This is a nice place; I've never been here,"
the first guy says. "Oh really?" the other replies. "It's also a very
special bar."
"Why is that?" the first guy asks.
"Well, you see that painting on the far wall? That's an original Van
Gogh, and this stool I'm sitting on was on the Titanic."
Gee, that's amazing!" the first guy says.
Not only that, but you see that window over there, fourth from the
right? Well, the wind does strange things outside that window. If
you jump out you'll fall about 50 feet before the wind catches you and
you're pushed back up."
"No way, that's impossible," the first guy replies.
"Not at all -- take a look," the other man replies, and walks over to
the window, followed closely by the first man. He opens the window,
climbs over the sill and falls out. He drops 10 ... 20 ... 30 ... 40
.. 50 feet, comes to a stop, and whoosh! He comes right back up and
sails back through the window.
"See, it's fun. You should try it," he says.
"Try it -- I don't even believe I saw it!" the first man shouts.
"It's easy. Watch, I'll do it again." And with that, he falls out
the window again. He drops 10 ... 20 ... 30 ... 40 ... 50 feet,
comes to a stop, and whoosh! He comes right back up and sails back
through the window.
"Give it a try, it's a blast," he says.
"Well, what the heck, I'll give it a try," the first man says and
proceeds to fall out the window. He falls 10 ... 20 ... 30 ... 40 ...
50 ... 60...70 ... 80 ... 90 ... 100 feet ... and splat! He ends up
as road pizza on the sidewalk.
After watching the first man fall to his death, the other guy casually
closes the window, heads back to the bar, and orders another drink.
The bartender arrives with the drink and says, "You know Superman,
you're a real ass when you're drunk."
